Common questions
Home insurance FAQ
What does home insurance cover in Turkey?
A standard Turkish home insurance policy (konut sigortası) covers your building structure, contents and third-party liability. You can choose structure-only, contents-only or combined cover. DASK earthquake cover is separate and compulsory.
Do I need DASK as well as home insurance?
Yes. DASK is the compulsory earthquake policy — it covers structural damage from earthquakes only. Home insurance covers everything else: fire, theft, water damage, storm, contents and liability. You need both.
Can foreigners and expats get home insurance in Turkey?
Yes. Turkish home insurance is available to all property owners and renters regardless of nationality. We handle thousands of policies for expat property owners every year.
Do I need home insurance as a renter?
While not legally required, contents insurance as a renter is strongly recommended. It covers your belongings against theft, fire and water damage. Buildings insurance is the landlord's responsibility.
How much does home insurance cost in Turkey?
Premiums depend on the property value, location, age of building and chosen coverage. As a guide, a basic contents policy can start from a few hundred TL per year. We'll compare quotes from 30+ insurers to find the best rate.
